Car is back at the interior shop getting pretty much the entire interior redone. I gotta say this whole project went pretty smooth up until the last few months of the final assembly . And its been a nightmare ever since . Just incredible the crap that's been happening with this car. It really makes you think WHY would anyone put themselves through this to build one of these cars! You gotta be INSANE!!!

Back in the Interior shop and having the entire interior redone!? WTF!! Mario that's fricking crazy. This has been an insane build from day one. You don't deserve the drama. Man...I hope it all works out.

Sorry for your troubles Mario. I'm curious why the interior needs to be redone. It looked great in the pics.

The beginning was an adventure and now the end. Hang tough Mario. The more miles you put on it the further the drama will be behind you.

Pictures can tell a ton of lies Don . The list was a mile long, way to many quality and craftsmanship issue . I wasn't standing for anything less than perfection for what that interior cost me.

That sucks Mario.
As far as projects. i think we're all a bit nuts. We hate it when it goes bad , love it the next day , sell it cause your done with it . than you miss it so you buy another POS and starts all over again.

Perfection is tough

Kjell it turned out exactly the way I wanted it . It just got very crazy for the last six months of the build .

That's for sure Frank ! The BS and the drama came in the last 6 months of the build and it never let up . I never thought it would get to a point where I would have to get lawyers involved but that's where I'm at now they left me no choice . I have two suits going, both are just about resolved as we speak. Thank god my lawyer is my neighbor, and I take care of his and his wife's firms I have a very nice retainer . . It really takes a lot of the fun out of the build when this crap happens . And let me say Troy has nothing to do with any of this BS. We had our little talk a wile back and cleared everything up, him and I are all good. So I have one more week before I get my car back from the upholstery disaster . Then back to Troy for some small tweaks . Then home so I can finally drive this friggin thing I'm going crazy !!!

Been there and done that Mario...... The Frisbee '32. A simple car that should have been fun - turned into a crap show because of the DETAILS.... the simplest things, such as, brake lights working...


The Brizio build.... 180* difference.

The Pinkee's build - 100% nothing but love for them

I've personally seen some "work" done by what people THINK are the very best of the best.... and sometimes THEY SUCK! And then their ego's get in the way when you call them out on the SUCKY work they did.... F your ego you dipwad!! -- look at the crappy work you did!!! PERIOD!!! If they'd own it and just do it over and do it right now and do it RIGHT. Then all is good.....

A reputation isn't crap - unless you live up to it every friggin' day.
